About This Home
As of May 2025Nestled in the coveted and walkable, Elliger Park neighborhood of Fort Washington, this quintessential farmhouse exudes historic character while being tastefully updated for modern living. Located in the award-winning Upper Dublin School District, this 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath home sits on over half an acre and features a wraparound Trex porch, a picturesque carriage house, and an in-ground heated pool. Step through either of the two main entrance doors, one with antique leaded glass windows, and immediately experience the airy, open atmosphere, enhanced by high ceilings and abundant windows. Entertaining is made easy with the large, open living and dining rooms. The focal point of the living room is the wall of built-in shelving and cabinetry and a gas fireplace. The light-filled dining room boasts a built-in window seat and an original mullioned glass china cabinet. The eat-in kitchen features a subway tile backsplash, farmhouse sink, newer range and stainless steel stove and refrigerator, and French doors which open to the rear Trex deck and pool with hot tub. Adjacent to the dining room is a combination butler’s pantry with a secondary sink and cabinetry, a powder room and a sunroom/family room featuring two walls of windows and exterior door to the side porch and walkway to the charming carriage house. Ascend to the second floor, and note the stunning stained-glass window gracing the landing. The second floor offers four bedrooms, each positioned at a corner of the house for abundant natural light throughout the day, and a hallway bath with all original fixtures including a clawfoot tub. Don’t miss the window seat in the second bedroom with convenient storage. The primary suite includes a sitting area overlooking the backyard, and an updated full bathroom. The fifth bedroom is found on the third floor and offers a cozy window nook with treetop views. A storage room and a walk-in cedar closet, also found on this floor, present the potential to transform this level into a primary or guest bedroom suite. The pristine, unfinished basement provides ample storage and houses a newer washer and dryer, secondary refrigeration, and a water softener. Outside, the fully fenced pool area and lush backyard is a personal retreat, perfect for relaxing, playing or gardening. Raised gardening beds with perennial strawberries and raspberries are a bonus. The carriage house has been newly wired, with all knob-and-tube wiring removed, and includes a water source for potential plumbing. Inside, the main room has been converted into an entertainment space with a bar and seating, while sliding barn doors lead to a garage area and two additional storage/gardening rooms. Upstairs, a large room offers endless possibilities for customization. This home’s prime location allows for a 20-minute walk to downtown Ambler’s restaurants, shopping, breweries, and entertainment. Four Mills Nature Reserve, with access to Fort Washington State Park, is a 15-minute walk away, while the Fort Washington SEPTA Regional Rail is just a 4 minute drive, offering a quick 34-minute ride to Center City, Philadelphia. Easy access to the New Jersey Turnpike ensures effortless commuting. Additional upgrades include a new roof in 2022, gutter guards, french drain and fresh exterior and interior paint. This exceptional property is a rare find, combining timeless elegance with modern convenience in a truly unbeatable location.
